Another Ring-billed Gull from the mid-west

I struggle with white balance. Hopefully this is correct. Only cropped in the vertical dimension from horizontal 4x6 to 8x10

WB looks to good to me, nice and sharp and I like the BG colors and how they compliment the subject.

Hi Jack, colors and WB look good on my screen. I like the fanned tail and the banking pose. If he far wing was extended and higher it would take the image up a notch, maybe a frame before or after this one. Thank you for sharing.

Hey Jack. Nice spread wings you have here and i really like the background. Beats just a clear blue sky. The white balance is not correct. The grays of your bird are too blue and you can see in the secondary bar (the white line at the trailing edge of the wing) that it is way too blue there. This area is white. You can also see the blue in the primaries as well. I did consider that it could be the sky showing through the feathers but that would not be the case with the primaries as they are in front of the dark brown area. You can also see the whites of the tail are very blue as well.
